Does LabView work on computers with Novell? Can the DSC Module be used with instrument drivers?

I want to use LabView on a PC using Novell. I plan to use instrument drivers from Instron as well as the LabView DSC Module to develop an application that is compliant with the FDA 21 CFR Part 11 regulation. Is this possible?

Debbie,

One of our applications engineers wrote a tutorial that covers this topic very well. It is called Using LabVIEW to Create FDA 21 CFR 11 Compliant Applications. It addresses each part of the code and how to use LabVIEW DSC for such applications.

Novell was not used during the development and testing of LabVIEW DSC, so we cannot guarantee that there will be no issues with that.

Finally, LabVIEW instrument drivers (IVI and traditional) can be used with LabVIEW DSC. The DSC module uses tags to keep track of data. For simple integration, you can create memory tags and use the instrument driver and DSC VIs to write to and read from them.
I have also talked to customers who created VI-based servers using LabVIEW DSC and instrument drivers. This will be more difficult than the memory tags, but can prove to be more efficient.
